What is life like as an expat in your area?
When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...
"Life for expats and digital nomads in Ireland is generally very pleasant. The country is known for its stunning landscapes, friendly locals and high quality of life. Expats in Ireland will find a culture of warmth and hospitality, as well as plenty of opportunities to explore the unique culture and landscapes of the country. The digital nomad community is vibrant and people can take advantage of Ireland's world-class co-working spaces, excellent restaurants and great transport links. Ireland is an ideal destination for anyone looking to work remotely, explore beautiful countryside or just make new friends in an unfamiliar place," remarked another expat who made the move to Ireland.
"Family life is big. I love to see all the families out on the weekend spending time together in the parks or the sea front (weather providing). Socialising is a big thing as well, and there seems to be a healthy balance between the two. Often times, you'll see kids with their parents in the pub, which still seems so strange to me," explained one expat living in Dublin, Ireland.
